  4. The Galle Face Hotel sounds like a wonderful place to stay in Colombo, Sri Lanka. With its long history and beautiful location by the Indian Ocean, it offers a unique experience to its guests. If historical places pique your interest, then a visit to Kandy, Sri Lanka luxury hotel Kandy is highly recommended.
